Chapter 295: Go to my uncle's house for New Year's greetings
After the first day of the Chinese New Year, we will start to greet the New Year. The order of greetings in different places is different. In Yangping County, due to the night watch, the New Year is not greeted on the first day of the first lunar month. At most, we will go to our elders to send some gifts. The official New Year greetings will not be held on the first day of the first lunar month.??
Starting from the second day of the first lunar month, the process of greetings for the New Year has begun.
Like many places, the first New Year greetings to visit my father-in-law during the New Year. In the eyes of Chinese people, the son-in-law is half a son, and the son-in-law is called my father-in-law and mother-in-law, so the first stop for New Year greetings is definitely the father-in-law’s house.
Even if your father-in-law’s New Year’s banquet is not on the second day of the New Year, you have to go to your father-in-law’s house first for New Year’s greetings. This cannot be changed, otherwise you will seem ignorant.
I have been much more casual when I started to pay New Year’s greetings from the third year of the year. After all, every family has a large group of relatives these days. If I do it according to seniority and rules, I can’t finish paying New Year’s greetings to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
So many relatives discussed early, and they staggered each other and took turns to invite New Year's banquets. You have lunch at noon and my family will go to night, so that every family will not fail.
But Ye Rongyao didn’t even know who his father-in-law was, nor did he know where his father-in-law’s house lived, so he had no way to say that he would wish him a New Year.
However, I cannot wish my father-in-law a New Year. Today, Ye Rongyao is still planning to take his wife to wish her New Year and to wish her mother's uncles a happy new year.
To be honest, Ye Rongyao has not been to his uncles' house for more than ten years, and has not wished him New Year's greetings to his uncles for more than ten years.
The main reason is that Ye Rongyao's father had a quarrel with several uncles. The specific reason seems that his uncles who lived in the town looked down on Ye Rongyao's father who came out of the countryside, and then at a banquet, he had a quarrel because of drinking.
Ye Rongyao's father was also a very stubborn person. Since then, he has not talked to his wife's brothers.
Ye Rongyao's uncles were also stubborn people, and they did not let down their faces and made peace with Ye Rongyao's father. In this way, the conflicts grew longer and longer, especially after Ye Rongyao's grandparents passed away, they completely broke up their relationship.
In addition to Ye Rongyao's mother also had sex with her brothers. Ye Rongyao and his father were the same, just not with them.
Even Ye Rongyao did not invite his uncle even when he got married. You should know who got married in the countryside. Uncle is the biggest, but Ye Rongyao's father just didn't invite his wife's brothers.
Ye Rongyao's mother was a very docile woman. The family affairs were basically decided by Ye Rongyao's father, so he could not resist his own man. In the end, Ye Rongyao's three uncles did not come except for someone to bring red envelopes over.
It's like I'm going to die of old age and never interact with each other.
However, when Ye Rongyao's parents passed away, several uncles came over. The hatred disappeared when people died. Everyone died. Where else did they get any hatred? Some of them were just sad.
The greatest sorrow of people is that life and death are inseparable. The person who once quarreled with him and was already separated from his own heaven and man. All that is left is the regret of the living.?=
Since his parents passed away, the grievances and grievances between his father and his uncles have also disappeared. As a nephew, Ye Rongyao wanted to wish his uncles a happy New Year.
"Husband, is my outfit okay?"
Liu Qingqing said to Ye Rongyao. This is the first time Liu Qingqing went to her uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings for more than a year. She couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Very good, very beautiful. My wife is born beautiful and looks good in any clothes. Of course, it is more beautiful if she doesn't wear clothes." Ye Rongyao said with a smile.
"Haha. Annoying."
Liu Qingqing smiled and said, "Ask her man with a smile."
“I moved these gifts to the car.”
After saying that, Ye Rongyao took six bottles of Wuliangye wine and walked towards the front yard. These wines were not bought by Ye Rongyao himself, but Wang Bingzhen specially brought them when he came to Taoyuan Village a few days ago. There were more than fifty bottles. They all had exquisite outer packaging, which was for Ye Rongyao to use as gifts when visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year.
Ye Rongyao is not used to being a guest. Since Wang Bingzhen has sent all of them, he has accepted them all, which is convenient for him. He doesn’t have to buy any New Year gifts during the Chinese New Year.
Gifts given to New Year greetings in China are nothing more than supplements and wine. However, it has been popular to send cooking oil in recent years. After all, this thing is used by every household, and it is not very expensive and is more practical than wine.
Therefore, many people can’t use up the cooking oil they receive during the Chinese New Year in a year, but nowadays, not everyone goes out to buy gifts, which costs a lot of money after all.
Many people hand over the wine, supplements, and cooking oil gifts given by others to other relatives to pay New Year's greetings, which can save a lot of money. After all, it is really unprofitable to buy these gifts during the New Year. They usually only cost 30 or 50 gifts, but they are sold hundreds of gifts during the New Year, and they have more than doubled.
Everyone has no particular concern about this matter, and they can understand each other, but there is no problem.
"Why haven't Tingting and Linlin come here yet?"
Liu Qingqing looked at her watch and it was almost ten o'clock in the morning. Ye Shuting and Ma Lin had not arrived at their home yet.
It’s not that I want to take Ye Shuting and Ma Lin to my uncle’s house to pay New Year’s greetings. The main reason is that I will not come with my man at noon today. There are so many little guys in my family to feed them at noon. I originally wanted to ask Aunt Liu to come and help feed them.
As a result, Ma Lin and Ye Shuting volunteered to do this job, so today I handed over the work of feeding these little guys at home for lunch to these two girls.
But these two girls are too unreliable. It’s almost ten o’clock now, and I haven’t seen these two girls yet.
"It's okay, no hurry, maybe they will come soon."
Ye Rongyao said with a smile. Now, unlike before, I used to pay attention to the New Year as early as possible. Nowadays, there are too many activities at night. Not to mention anything else, there are many people who play cards all night long at night. It's too early, and many people haven't gotten up yet.
So now people are not as early as before. After all, it is possible that your relatives are still sleeping when you are gone.
"I'm afraid my uncle and the others blame us for going too late." Liu Qingqing said.
"It's okay, look, aren't they here?" Ye Rongyao pointed to the two girls Ye Shuting and Ma Lin who were jogging into his yard and said to his wife.
"Brother Rong Yao, Sister Tingting, sorry, we're getting up too late." Ye Shuting said to Ye Rong Yao and Liu Qingqing with some embarrassment.
"The main reason is that it was too cold this day. I didn't even want to come out when I lay in the quilt. But when I took my phone, it was already past nine o'clock." Ma Lin said with a blushing face.
It's indeed too cold these two days, and the temperature in the morning is almost ten degrees below zero. If it weren't for New Year's greetings, Ye Rongyao wouldn't want to get up.
"Haha, okay, let's leave the family to you." Ye Rongyao said to the two girls with a smile.
"Don't worry, let's leave it to us. You can go to greet the New Year with peace of mind." Ma Lin said patting her chest.
Although Ma Lin and Ye Shuting patted their chests and promised, Liu Qingqing was still a little worried. After explaining for a while, she sat next to her man and went to her uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings with her man.
